I have got my website back from reconsideration. I suggest to only focus on the links that shows up in your Google Webmaster Account. Also, I suggest creating two Google Docs and coping all of your email correspondance and pasting them into one google doc. Save it and share it. Copy the url of that Google doc.
Next, create a Google excel doc. Copy all the url backlinks that you have requested to be removed that corresponds with your emails and paste them in the excel doc. You can easily download these links through Google Webmaster Tool which you may already know.
Lastly, keep your consideration short. Just state that you have completed working on removing bad backlinks and below are links to two docs showing my effort.
Paste your two Google docs below.
It is important to make sure that your backlinks in your Google Webmaster tools have shown some sort of decrease from when you were penalized. If the number of backlinks haven't gone down any then the work above is useless.
Also, when you email the webmasters of the bad backlinks, make sure you attach a file showing them the links that you need removed. This makes it easier for the webmaster to go through and remove them. They will also be more app to remove your backlinks if they have a list to go off of.
Email me if you any questions.
Hope this helps.
Tony
